Intra-abdominal Pressure Monitoring in Open Abdomen Management with Dynamic Abdominal Closure

Abstract: The importance of elevated intra-abdominal pressure (IAP) and abdominal compartment syndrome (ACS) have been recognized in critical care for its potential damaging effects. But, quantification of IAP values may be useful as a clinical tool for determining efficacy of coughing and straining for functional recovery of OA patients. We would like to evaluate IAP generated in an OA patient and the effect of negative pressure therapy (NPT) and dynamic abdominal closure systems (ABRA) on the IAP values at rest and du… Show more

“…Use of ABRA in conjunction with NPT increase the success of OA management by all this way. 6 Fernandez suggests that the addition of saline solution or hypochlorous acid solutions to OA NPWT in a programmed, controlled manner may offer the clinician an effective adjunctive therapy for the treatment of the complex septic abdomen. The use of OA irrigation in these seven patients resulted in abdominal closure while minimizing septic complication in all patients.…”
